Features

  • Enables/disables control of individual direct memory access (DMA) requests
  • Contains four independent DMA channels
  • Allows for independent auto-initialization of all channels
  • Allows memory-to-memory transfers
  • Allows memory block initialization
  • Allows for incrementing or decrementing addresses
  • Expands to any number of channels
  • Contains an End of Process input for terminating transfers
  • Accepts software DMA requests
  • Has independent polarity control for DREQ and DACK signals
  • C8237 controller was developed in HDL and synthesizes to approximately 6,900 gates depending on the technology used
  • Functionality based on the Intel 8237

Description

The C8237 programmable DMA controller core is a peripheral interface circuit for microprocessor systems. The core is designed to be used in conjunction with an external 8-bit address latch. It contains four independent channels and may be expanded to any number of channels by cascading additional controller chips. Each channel has a full 64-K address and word count capability.
